More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a standard immunochemistry assay using rate nephelometry, a well-established analytical technique. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any computational methods beyond standard data processing for quantitative determination.

No.
The device is intended for the quantitative determination of C-reactive protein concentrations, which aids in evaluation of stress, trauma, infection, inflammation, and surgery. This is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one.

Yes
The device is described as aiding in the "evaluation of stress, trauma, infection, inflammation, and surgery" by measuring C-reactive protein concentrations, which is a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "reagent" and is used "in conjunction with Beckman Coulter IMMAGE® Immunochemistry Systems," indicating it is a chemical component used with a hardware system, not a standalone software device.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative determination of human C-reactive protein concentrations in human serum and plasma samples." This involves testing biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a "reagent" used in conjunction with a system for determining concentrations in "human serum and plasma samples."
  • Clinical Significance: The clinical significance describes how the measurement aids in the "evaluation of stress, trauma, infection, inflammation, and surgery," which are all diagnostic purposes.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies describe experiments like "method comparison, stability, linearity, and imprecision experiments," which are typical evaluations for IVD devices.
  • Key Metrics: The key metrics provided (imprecision data) are standard performance characteristics for quantitative IVD assays.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device" with a K number (K962523 Behring N Latex CRP) is a strong indicator that this device is being compared to another legally marketed IVD device for regulatory purposes.

All of these points align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Regulatory Class: II Product Code: DCK Dated: May 7, 1998 Received: May 8, 1998

Dear Ms. Hellie:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major requlations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Druq Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal Laws or Requlations.

Under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA-88), this device may require a CLIA complexity categorization. To determine if it does, you should contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at (770)488-7655.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510 (k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4588. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the requlation entitled. "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).
